Ex-KFAN host Dubay gets 6 months in jail for cocaine possession

KFAN-AM radio personality Jeffery Dubay, DOB 1/19/68, was charged 10/22/08 in Ramsey County District Court with felony fifth-degree cocaine possession stemming from a traffic stop 10/15/08 in Maplewood.

Jeffery Dubay, the former KFAN radio host convicted of cocaine possession, was sentenced by Judge Joanne Smith today to six months in jail.

Dubay, 41, of Plymouth was taken directly from Ramsey County court into the custody of sheriff's deputies.

The former host of "PA and Dubay" had been on probation, but failed to abide by its terms. Specifically, he failed several drug tests, said Ramsey County attorney's office spokesman Paul Gustafson.

Dubay's trouble on the drug charges began Oct. 15, 2008, when police in Maplewood stopped him. An officer saw him throw what looked like a yellow napkin out the window. It turned out to contain about 0.016 ounces of cocaine, according to a criminal complaint.
